I never dropped it. Although I cannot really tell because the day before it went dead, I was out of the house and I left it on my bed. I don't know what happened during that time.
There are processes to retrieve the data, that I know, but it would cost me money and time. Both of which I don't have. I tried several trial programs. I figured if one of these at least was able to detect my drive and assign a drive letter to it, I would at least purchase the program and try to revive my almost dead hdd.
None seem to work.
What else could I do?
Not only do I have to retrieve those files, I also need to buy another hdd.
Oh bother!
Tried it on a different computer? Or a different wire perhaps? Baka naman nagloloko lang yung wire.
ReplyDeleteNoob my ***. A computer noob is something I wouldn't associate with you.
hahaha.. noob when it comes to recovering data. Yes, I've tried a different wire and on all computers here at home. It can't be detected in XP but appears unallocated (whatever that means) on Vista and Windows 7. I'm scouting for a new one while getting all the files recovered...hopefully it will get recovered I've read lots of blogs/sites/forums that say that it can be recovered 99-100% given a big amount or someone who knows how to do it...
